NMLS Disclosures
Required Loan Origination Information on the Note and Security Instrument
The Truth in Lending Act now requires that the individual loan originator name and Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS) number, and the originating company name and NMLS number appear on the following documents at the time of consummation:
· Initial and final loan applications (1003),
· Note, and
· Security instrument.
Effective with loans closed on or after July 31, 2014, if the name and NMLS information is missing on the closing documents (the note and the security instrument) at the time of consummation, the loan will be ineligible for purchase.
To prevent this Truth in Lending error, please ensure that the originator name and NMLS number is accurate and matches a name which has been registered with the NMLS and the information is present on the closing documents at the time of consummation.
ECOA Valuations Rule
MRBP Operations requires that all MRBP lenders include evidence in each file that
all valuations were delivered to the borrower. This MRBP Update clarifies what constitutes acceptable evidence for valuation delivery.
Acceptable proof of delivery for all USBHM underwritten files:
USBHM MRBP has provided a model form, the Appraisal Delivery Certification that lenders must use.
Acceptable proof of delivery for all delegated-underwritten files:
MRBP lenders can use the Appraisal Delivery Certification mentioned above for their delegated-underwritten files; other proof of delivery is also acceptable. If lenders choose other documentation, we require that lenders provide either:
1. A borrower certification executed at closing which states the borrower either (a) received all appraisals or valuations three business days prior to closing or (b) exercised a waiver of the three-day closing waiting period but received all appraisals and valuations at or before closing;
Or
2. A signed lender certification, which states the borrower (a) received all appraisals or valuations three business days prior to closing or (b) the borrower exercised a waiver of the three-day closing waiting period but received all appraisals and valuations at or before closing.
